There are hundreds of quotes talking about the greatness of simplicity, and at one point we have all said we wanted something simple. But some of us end up with something overly complicated and regret taking the path of over complication. Nathan Luong has taken his Honda S2000 down the path of simplicity.

The most noticeable modifications the the exterior are the Voltex Type 1V Wing, the OEM hard top and front lip and the APR GT3 carbon fiber mirrors. Most people keep Honda’s roadster as a soft top, so seeing one with a hard top is a bit of a rarity. Seeing one with the Voltex wing is a bit more of a rarity. And you don’t really see Modulo badges everyday either.

Nate also popped on some clear side markers from a S2000 CR and an AP1 S2000 rear bumper. Underneath the Voltex wing is a smaller GT Motoring duckbill spoiler.

The car is a bit more stiffly sprung thanks to a set of KW Variant 3 coilovers and a Cusco strut tower bar. It sticks and stops better thanks to the 255/40 Advan Neovas wrapped around the 17×9 Enkei PF01s. It’s not pushing a penny across a parking lot low, nor is it a super meaty track car stance. It’s a nice look for a street car, and capable enough to turn some laps on a track if the situation arises.

The simplicity continues under the hood. An AutoTecknic carbon fiber cooling plate helps direct airflow to the K&N intake. From there it makes it way through the engine and out of the car by way of an HKS 75mm exhaust.

Cabin wise it’s painfully simple: Bride Vios 3 seat on Buddy Club Super Low Down seat rails, J’s Racing shift plate and a Team VooDoo shift knob. He’s had that shift knob in all of his cars, and probably will continue to keep it in all of them.

Is this the most intensely built S2000 ever? Not even close. Is it a fun driving, handsome roadster? And then some. Ralph Waldo Emerson said “Nothing is more simple than greatness; indeed, to be simple is to be great.” This car embodies those words.
